Long Beach Breaks Ground on New Affordable Housing Project in Midtown

 

LONG BEACH — The City of Long Beach July 25 helped commemorate the start of construction for 1400 Long Beach, a 163-unit affordable housing project in the midtown area for low-income individuals and families. The six-story development by Meta Housing will be comprised of one-, two- and three-bedroom units and feature amenities including a community room, an outdoor courtyard and children’s play area.

About the 1400 Long Beach New Affordable Housing:

The project, located on a formerly vacant commercial lot at its namesake address of 1400 Long Beach Blvd., will provide rental units for low and extremely low-income households earning between 30 to 70% of the area median income or AMI. The 1400 Long Beach development represents an $87.6 million investment into the midtown community, with construction scheduled for completion mid-2026.

More information about those projects and other affordable housing developments around the city can be found in the department’s 2023 Annual Report.
